O that the Lord would guide my ways

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #201 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O that the Lord would guide my ways To keep his statutes still! O that my God would grant me grace To know and do his will! 2 O send thy Spirit down to write Thy law upon my heart, Nor let my tongue indulge deceit, Nor act the liar's part. 3 From vanity turn off my eyes, Let no corrupt design Nor covetous desires arise Within this soul of mine. 4 Order my footsteps by thy word, And make my heart sincere; Let sin have no dominion, Lord, But keep my conscience clear, 5 Make me to walk in thy commands, 'Tis a delightful road; Nor let my head, nor heart, nor hands Offend against my God.

Thou art my portion, O my God!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #202 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Thou art my portion, O my God! Soon as I know thy way, I hasten to obey thy word, And suffer no delay. 2 I choose the path of heavenly truth, And glory in my choice; Not all the riches of the earth Could make me so rejoice. 3 The testimonies of thy grace I set before mine eyes; Thence I derive my daily strength, And there my comfort lies. 4 If once I wander from thy path, I think upon my ways; Then turn my feet to thy commands, And trust thy pardoning grace. 5 Now I am thine, forever thine, O, save thy servant, Lord! Thou art my shield, my hiding-place, My hope is in thy word. Topics: Worship Law of God Tune Title: LITCHFIELD

God's perfect law converts the soul

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #203 (1886) Lyrics: 1 God's perfect law converts the soul, Reclaims from false desires; With sacred wisdom his sure word The ignorant inspires. 2 The statutes of the Lord are just, And bring sincere delight; His pure commands of living truth Assist the feeblest sight. 3 His perfect worship here is fixed, On sure foundations laid; His equal laws are in the scales Of truth and justice weighed; 4 Of more esteem than golden mines, Or gold refined with skill; More sweet than honey, or the drops That from the comb distill. 5 My trusty counselors they are, And friendly warning give; Divine rewards attend on those Who by thy precepts live.

Lord, how secure my conscience was

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #204 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Lord, how secure my conscience was, And felt no inward dread! I was alive without the law, And thought my sins were dead. 2 My hopes of heaven were firm and bright: But since the precept came With a convincing power and light, I find how vile I am. 3 My guilt appeared but small before, Till terribly I saw How perfect, holy, just, and pure, Was thy eternal law. 4 Then felt my soul the heavy load, My sins revived again; I had provoked a dreadful God, And all my hopes were slain. 5 My God, I cry with every breath For some kind power to save, To break the yoke of sin and death, And thus redeem the slave.

Blest are the undefiled in heart

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #205 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Blest are the undefiled in heart, Whose ways are right and clean; Who never from thy law depart, But fly from every sin. 2 Blest are the men who keep thy word, And practice thy commands; With their whole heart they seek thee, Lord, And serve thee with their hands. 3 Great is their peace who love thy law; How firm their souls abide! Nor can a bold temptation draw Their steadfast feet aside. Topics: Worship Law of God Tune Title: AVON

Thy law is perfect, Lord of light

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #206 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Thy law is perfect, Lord of light, Thy testimonies sure; The statutes of thy realm are right, And thy commandments pure. 2 Let these, O God, my soul convert, And make thy servant wise; Let these be gladness to my heart, The dayspring to mine eyes. 3 So may the words my lips express, The thoughts that throng my mind, O Lord, my strength and righteousness, With thee acceptance find.

When God confirmed his law to men

Author: R. F. Cottrell Hymnal: SDAH1886 #207 (1886) Lyrics: 1 When God confirmed his law to men Through Israel's waiting flock, He spake aloud his precepts ten, And graved them in the rock. 2 Within the tent's most holy place That sacred law was brought, Nor can the hand of man efface What great Jehovah wrought. 3 But God well knew perdition's son Would ne'er his precepts love; He gave a duplicate alone, And kept his own above. 4 There in the tabernacle true, Pitched not by hands of men, That sacred law is kept in view, The holy precepts ten.

O how I love thy holy law!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #208 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O how I love thy holy law! 'Tis daily my delight; And thence my meditations draw Divine and advice by night. 2 How doth thy word my heart engage! How well employ my tongue! And in my tiresome pilgrimage Yields me a heavenly song. 3 No treasures so enrich the mind, Nor shall thy word be sold, For loads of silver well-refined, Nor heaps of choicest gold. 4 When all the power of nature droop, Thy promises of grace Are pillars to support the hope Of my abiding-place.

With all my heart I've sought thy face

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #209 (1886) Lyrics: 1 With all my heart I've sought thy face, O let me never stray From thy commands, O God of grace! Nor tread the sinner's way. 2 Thy word I've hid within my heart To keep my conscience clean, And be an everlasting guard From every rising sin. 3 My ear with sacred reverence hears The threatenings of thy word; My flesh, with holy trembling, fears The judgments of the Lord. 4 My God! I long, I hope, I wait, For thy salvation still; While thy whole law is my delight, And I obey thy will. Topics: Worship Law of God Tune Title: WINCHESTER

How blest are they who always keep

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #210 (1886) Lyrics: 1 How blest are they who always keep The pure and perfect way; Who never from the sacred paths Of God's commandments stray! 2 How blest, who to his righteous laws Have still obedient been, And have with fervent, humble zeal His favor sought to win! 3 Thou strictly hast enjoined us, Lord, To learn thy sacred will; And all our diligence employ Thy statutes to fulfill. 4 O then that they most holy will Might o'er my ways preside; And I the course of all my life By thy direction guide!
